Each individual Parveen Scissors blade is then hand-ground on a traditional grinding wheel. These wheels have been used in blade production since steel was invented, the only difference being a slightly more modern power source than the water-driven wheels of yesteryear.

Once the two halves are ground and polished, they are assembled by the highly skilled artisans

The art of Making Parveen Scissors is learnt through years of experience. As with many of our processes, the skills involved cannot be written down; they must be picked up by our experts through up to ten years of hands-on apprenticeship.
